Hello,
I've got the rt73usb in my laptop and it used to work fine but for the past two kernels (2.6.27 and 2.6.28 stock arch kernels) it has had the problem as summised. It comes up, scans, connects to AP but just will not transfer anything from the AP. It sends some initial data as shown from an ifconfig, there's some up transfer but no down. I just popped my bug report cherry with this as i noticed someone else had the problem and it hasn't been officially reported anywhere, so appologies for any lacking information but i find no error mesgs in dmesg or anything to post. Ket me know for appropriate information if possible. Thanks. |

Verify your configuration.
I dumped some hwd as well in case that helps.
bash-3.2# hwd -e

It's internally wired to the usb on an advent laptop if this means anything.
reconfigure the network. try with no encryption first.
x86_64, 2.6.29 (2.6.27 and 2.6.28 works also) and rt73usb.
Is it possible that you forgot to install the firmware?
core/rt2x00-rt71w-fw <-------------
pacman -Qs rt71 ?
where works fine with .28 and .29
regards
dmesg | grep wlan0
wlan0 (rt73usb): not using net_device_ops yet
wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:22:3f:38:b8:c6 try 1
wlan0 direct probe responded

As you see it associates to the AP no problems, it also comes up in iwconfig, even shows a few bytes sent, but i can't get a connection from it at all.
pacman -Qs rt71
local/rt2x00-rt71w-fw 1.8-3
Firmware for the rt2x00 wireless drivers
The thing is that this worked fine in one kernel but has refused to transmit any data since then. I've also previously compiled another driver, for monitor mode which didn't work but the driver did (rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.2) now fails to compile for 2.6.29. I also noticed that atleast one other person had this same problem on the forums.
If I can be of any further help let me know and i'll try and reply faster this time.
Thanks,
Tom
